We are struggling in India, along with other HR groups to get a Presidential pardon for Afzal Guru of Kashmir, accused in the Parliament attack; and aslo have been struggling to get Parliament to abolish death penalty. Its sad that Mirza should get death penalty after 18 years in prison. What a miscarriage of justice! Judgement should also be based on Insaaniyat. Why are our South Asaian countries like this? One begins to despair of change. Please set Mirza free, and compensate him for the terrible mental torture imposed unjustly on him. |

To execute a person who was denied of fair trial is totally unacceptable. Much more if the charges and evidence against the person had allegations of being fabricated. Pakistan must abolish capital punishment without delay to save the lives of innocent persons sentenced to death. This barbaric and inhumane form of punishment has no place in civilized society. |

Please seriously consider the following reason advanced by Victor Hugo, French poet and novelist (1803-1885), when he advocated prison reform and the abolition of the death penalty: « il est un droit qu’aucune loi ne peut entamer, qu’aucune sentence ne peut retrancher : le droit de devenir meilleur » (There is one right which no law can undermine, no conviction can remove, and this right is the right to become better). |

the facts and other situations of the case shows, there is clear injustice happening for a period of 18 years. Mr. Hussain was denied his fundamental human rights of fair and impartial trial. not only that when secular court of pakistan acquitted Mr.Hussain as not guilty then punishment by the sharia court is nothing but the Double Jeopardy, which is in clear violation violation of human rights norm. therefore, the case of Mr. Hussain should be thought with sympathy and be pardoned. |

Appealing for Clemency. There is not enough reason to take a man's life, as I do not see enough proof against him. If there is the slightest chance that a man may be innocent, all of us individually carry the blood of the man on our hands. A society is judged by its humanism. Harsh punishments achieve nothing except for dehumanizing us. |

There is no justfication in continuation of death penalty in pakistan. In case of mirza tahir there are compelling reasons for granting him pardon or clemency.There appears to be no jstification for trying him once again through sharia court when civil court had not found him guilty. Pres of pakistan must show his much mentioned spirit of enlightened moderation not ony in case of tahir but all who are on death row. |

Justice must & can only seem to have been done in this case if the High Court's decision is either upheld or re-tested by a re-trial. The dual spectacle of a system with conflicting legal jurisdictions & a willing acquiesence with the imposition of mental torture on an otherwise innocent man - does not bring Pakistan any credit in the eyes of the world.
Free this man!

Please release this still young man, who has already spent more than half his life in prison. There were no witness to the incident for which he has been imprisoned, and putting him to death, or keeping him in prison any longer will do nothing to bring justice to this case. He has served his time honourably, so please do the right thing and allow this young man to go out and do something useful with what remains of his life. |

I dont think anyone should be given death penalty and even if a prisoner is convicted he or she should be given life imprisonment etc but death penalty should be abolished completely in Pakistan - its a stone age custom and we should leave it back in stone ages. |

Tahir Mirza'a "murder charge" seems to me to be based on a completely concocted story. How did this then young boy manage to get his hands on the gun? It obviously belonged to the taxi driver who got killed when he and his companiaon tried to rob Tahir and Tahir wrested the gun away from him. |

Viewing the news at a glance, I strongly feel that in this case two important things are being ignored by whole Pakistani government and especially juctice department and president. Those are, at one place high court dismissed the case against the young man and second a court sentenced the man life in prison. I donot know how long "life in prison" mean. may be not more than 18 yrs , which already convicked has faced.
now please be realistic and just consider that he has faced a punishment, whinch is 18 (long) years almost life in prison. or appoint couple of honest and capable persons who can review the case quickly, if mirza found innocent then I well say he be compansated for his long trouble created by the juctice system in pakistan.
I would further like to talk with mr.Mirza's family if they reply my this mail with their contact tel.
thanks |

The president should over-ride the victim's family. Mirza has suffered enough. He should go free as soon as possible |

A court decision to hang a human being is a legal "murder". This is abhorrent and should not be a means to punish a human being what ever the crime he has committed. In this particular case of Mirza Thahir we pray in the name of humanity that, that bgood sense prevail and he be saved from the hangman's rope. |

Please, lets stop this barbarism and let islam be known for the wonderfully englightened and forward looking, humane religion that it is. Shariah is not a word that the world, and other muslims, should be afraid of! |

HE should not executed as he has already spent his half life in prison and i agree there is no eyewitnessess. In islam if threre is no evidence of any murder the prisoner must be released .. |

There are tantalizing hints that improvement can be more dramatic when diversity is eliminated, such as single gender classes, blacks performing better when reinforced by their own successes. |
